Hi so I have a problem here (has to do with printer feed adjustments but thats not where ALL the fun is.)

lets say I print something 50 inches long, the print comes out to 49 17/32" long. so it came out 15/32" short. I set an adjustment to +0.70% and reprinted it. The new length with the 0.70% adjustment came out to 50 1/4". So adjusting it by 0.70% it stretched the print by 23/32". So it stretched it 8/32" (1/4") to much.

What I did was the following.

Took 23/7 and got 3.2857
So by following the logic that 0.10% would adjust the print by 3.2857/32" and to get a 1/4" out of this how would I go about adjusting the %
